My Advice To fellow Igbos Living In The North. by newbornmacho(m): 7:22am On Jun 18, 2017 |
First a background. I am Igbo and I live in the north of Nigeria. I have followed events quite closely, listening to all sides hoping to decide which argument has the most merit. As it is , the northern youths' ultimatum to my kin to leave the north has helped crystallize my own position. I am in favour of a UN backed referendum for the Igbo and any others to express their desires or otherwise to break away from Nigeria. I do hope that can be done quickly enough, and am urging the FG to please expedite this process. Ultimately I would hope that borders and other terms of the separation would be decided under the watchful eyes of the int'l community, and the new nation birthed in peace. I've had to define my position to debunk the myth of the Igbo who will not leave the north come what may. I was born here in the north and only had my university training in the east . NYSC and 100% of my working life have been in the north and I have many friends here , but I will never succumb to the humiliation of being called a parasite on the north. Indeed I and many others like me have given to the north more than it has given me. I was the only doctor in the local government where I served (NYSC) and the constant communication from my friends there show how much I meant to them. I own a hospital now, and 95 percent of my staff are northeners. Many of my friends similarly. Listen : if the north wants me to leave, I am more than happy to oblige them. Now my advice: 1. All Igbo in the remote northern hinterland should relocate as a first step to the city centers with large Igbo populations. Don't be found alone when it goes down. 2. Arrangements for sufficient video surveillance of happenings should be made by all. Get a recording device and carry it with you at all times. Place any potentially illegal infringement on your rights on record. We hope to open a Facebook account where folks can post videos and all. 3. Be sure to have papers of your real estate. Bank them if you can. 4. Be extremely cautious what you say/do on social media, or in real life. DONT DRAW FIRST BLOOD!. 5. relocate those you can. 6. Keep in touch. Arrangements are being made to beam an intense international media searchlight on Igbo enclaves in the north. Don't be isolated. 7. BE READY TO GO HOME!!! Our aim is a legal divorce from Nigeria with a new homeland to relocate to; until that is guaranteed its suicidal to congregate in the east under guard of a hostile and reckless armed forces. Don't go anywhere until Biafra or some other entity legally emerges. 8. Stop all further investments in the north. Transfer what you can home. Even if Nigeria remains as is, you should have learnt a thing or two. 9. I have put up some of my real estate for sale. You may wish to do the same. 10. Retain contacts with our Christian brothers from the middle belt and the northern minorities. There will be future negotiations and discussions, and all contacts and connections will be useful. 11. Lastly don't tar everyone with the same brush. There are core Hausa Fulani that are as disturbed by recent events. There are good and bad people everywhere . Whatever happens hereafter , Nigeria can never remain the same again. There was a country. 32 Likes 8 Shares |

All i can deduce from this write-up is sheer arrogance which has not taken the Igbos anywhere. It's so unfortunate for the Op to say he has given more because he's doing charity work there without pay and even if he does, are you the first? Instead of Igbos to channel their energies into re-orientating their kins from nefarious activities like kidnapping, counterfeiting, drugs, fraud, baby factory etc and building bridges... 10 Likes |

Nutase:Why didn't the northern youth demand that IPOB and nnamdi kanu be made persona non grata in the north? Why rope in the entire Igbo? Do you claim not to know of igbos , even politicians who hate and despise ipob? The northern youth have taken this to the level where people like me operate, and I am ready to play ball. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

newbornmacho: Whoever disagrees with your piece of advice is your real enemy. IGBOS Living in the North pls transfer as much wealth/investment as you can back to the EAST NOW. Don't ever invest Kobo in the North henceforth. Send your family home now. you as a man can stay behind if you wish. Or move to Abuja as we will give them the biggest resistance they have ever encountered. But that cannot be done when you a lone ranger in core North. We want peace but if they want it there own way, that they will have. 9 Likes 1 Share |
